Ben Simmons Sends Notice Demanding His Ex To Return $1 Million Engagement Ring After Relationship Ended
Ben Simmons wants his ring back.
The Brooklyn Nets star player wants his former fiancé Maya Jama to return the engagement ring that was gifted to her when they thought they would be headed towards marriage. The Nets guard has reportedly sent Jama a legal letter demanding that she return the engagement ring. The ring is worth $1 million.
The reason behind their split is that they both wanted to concentrate on their careers.
Jama indicated she never intended to keep the ring and was caught off guard by the demand letter.
“This was the first time that she has been asked by Ben to return it and, for the avoidance of any doubt, she has never refused to return it,” per Amelia Wynne’s report for the Daily Mail.
Simmons, who was the No. 1 overall pick of the Philadelphia 76ers in the 2016 NBA Draft, was traded to the Nets last year.
He has played in 36 games so far this season.
The 6-10 Simmons is averaging 7.6 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 6.4 assists per game for the Nets.
New Orleans Pelicans Stun The NBA By Trading Superstar Brandon Ingram To NBA Heavyweight In Blockbuster Trade Proposal

With the New Orleans Pelicans enduring another tremendously disappointing season, star big man Brandon Ingram is another name to follow in the trade rumor mill.
The Pelicans enter Thursday as the worst team in the Western Conference (5-22), with only the Washington Wizards (3-21) displaying an inferior record. It’s clear that a rebuild is necessary in NOLA, and that would start with trading core players like Brandon Ingram and/or Zion Williamson.
Svyatoslav Rovenchuk of Athlon Sports recently proposed a blockbuster trade idea that has New Orleans trading Ingram and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl to the powerhouse Golden State Warriors in exchange for Jonathan Kuminga, Gary Payton II, Kevon Looney and De’Anthony Melton:
“The swap allows the Warriors to add another All-Star caliber player around Curry. Meanwhile, the Pelicans land a worthwhile young prospect and a handful of expiring contracts. One could argue that Golden State would need to add some sort of draft pick compensation too, but given Ingram’s modest value, Kuminga may offer more than enough appeal to not have to do so.”
